Hanoi 2005

Hanoi 2005

Mother & Child, Hanoi

May 26, 2014 in Vietnam

Review by Annuska Derks in New Mandala of
It's a Living: Work and Life in Vietnam Today, ed. Gerard Sasges, NUS Press, 2013 

"Despite such obvious changes, the stories demonstrate the continued importance of the family, which on the one hand provides support for learning skills or finding a job and on the other hand needs support.  This latter need is often the prime motivator to endure long separations and sometimes hard, dirty, dangerous or tedious work"
